Xihe's heart softened, she held the boy's face and kissed him again and again: "Okay, okay, I won't adopt the child, we will have one of our own."
Although she knew very well that after many years, the deposed crown prince had long lost his original ambitions, and he was now doing very well in the Ministry of Rites, he might not be willing to become emperor.
But since Yuanbao doesn't agree, then just give birth to the child yourself.
They did what they said. Not long after, the imperial physician found out that Her Majesty was pregnant during his routine pulse diagnosis.
When this good news came out, all the officials were surprised, and even several princes serving in the court could not help but smile. They were also afraid. What if the empress had no children and became jealous when she saw that they had so many children and grandchildren, and killed them as a sacrifice to the heaven?
Although the empress has always been a benevolent monarch among the people, she is deeply loved by the people.
But they have not forgotten how the Queen remained calm and grew from a spoiled princess hated by everyone to a princess holding magical weapons, and then to the majestic Queen today.
They have no intention of rebelling at all!
Officials, royal relatives, gold, silver, jewelry, and expensive medicines all sent gifts to the Red Palace.
At the same time, a group of fairies in white clothes suddenly appeared in the barren mountains outside the city, holding gift boxes, and followed the people into the city and went straight to the palace.
When Xihe heard the news, Yuanbao was guarding her carefully.
Hearing this, he raised his head and asked, "Would you like to meet your old friend?"
Yuanbao blinked, then suddenly realized that it was the group of immortals from heaven who came. He nodded hurriedly: "See, let them in quickly!"
Seeing Xihe's surprise, he coughed lightly and explained embarrassedly: "They have a lot of good things on them."
Xihe: “…”
I didn't expect this to be the reason, and I couldn't help but laugh and cry.
The eunuch led the immortals in, each of them extremely respectful. Once inside the hall, they immediately leaned over to the empress on the soft couch and said with a smile, "Congratulations, the empress has a successor."
Opening the gift box, there are thousand-year-old ginseng, South China Sea pearls, fairy talismans... the whole room is dazzling.
The Immortal Lord smiled and said, "It's just a small token of respect, I hope Her Majesty will not despise it."
Xihe nodded slightly: "You are thoughtful."
After a few pleasantries, the eunuch asked the immortals to leave the hall on the grounds that the empress needed to rest. Yuanbao said goodbye to Xihe and left as well.
Outside the main hall, Yuanbao led his old acquaintances to the side hall.
As soon as he sat down, an immortal king cast a barrier and asked impatiently, "Yuan Ruo, is the child in Her Majesty's belly really yours?"
Yuan Bao's face darkened instantly: "If it's not mine, then whose is it?"
Do these people know how to talk? I suddenly felt a little angry.
The Immortal Lord exchanged a glance with the others, took a deep breath, and said to Yuan Bao, "In the past, we didn't tell you the truth because we thought you had just woken up. But now, we can no longer hide it from you."
"Do you still remember the Fairy Shangyu and the Supreme God Mo Shang?"
This one sentence made Yuanbao, who was full of confusion, stand there in a daze.
The Immortal Lord gazed into his eyes and revealed everything: "Back then, Fairy Shangyu jumped off the Immortal Execution Platform due to a broken heart. To win back his wife, Supreme God Mo Shang used the Three Lives Mirror and entered the cycle of reincarnation with her. And as Fairy Shangyu's close friend, you followed her to protect her."
"Three Lives Mirror, a total of three lives and three worlds, now is the third world."
Yuanbao was shocked: "But I have no memory of my second life, and I have never seen Shangyu and Mo Shang in this life." All kinds of speculations flashed through his mind in an instant.
The Immortal Lord's eyes were filled with pity and sorrow: "Because you died in your second life."
"Not only you, but also the Fairy Shangyu and the Supreme God Mo Shang are all dead. And all the heavenly soldiers and generals, big and small, in the fairy world are also dead."
Yuanbao froze instantly and looked at him in disbelief.
He opened his mouth, breathing a little hard: "Second life, what happened?"
Why did he die? Why did Shang Yu die? Why did the Supreme God Mo Shang die? Isn't he the number one war god in the immortal world? Who can kill him?
The Immortal King's heart shuddered, and he subconsciously looked at the restriction.
Mysterious runes are flowing on the restriction. Any disturbance outside the restriction cannot affect the inside of the restriction, and any sound inside the restriction cannot be transmitted out. This is a restriction passed down from ancient times, and should not be heard by that woman.
The Immortal Lord felt slightly relieved and continued, "That man was extremely powerful. The Supreme God Mo Shang was instantly reduced to ashes, and the Female Immortal Shang Yu could not withstand the blow and eventually died of depression."
Yuanbao suddenly stood up: "What?!"
The Immortal Lord smiled bitterly: "At first we didn't want to believe it, and even activated the Three Lives Mirror once again, but there was no trace of him in the Three Realms, until later -"
Yuan Bao couldn't help but feel hopeful: "What happened next? Is the God still alive?"
The Immortal Lord nodded, and before Yuan Bao could breathe a sigh of relief, he continued, "But only a remnant soul remains, and he has become a foolish child."
Yuan Bao's face was filled with shock. The Immortal Lord continued, "Despite this, he and the Fairy Shangyu are still under control. Their actions are monitored by special personnel. Even our people cannot get close to them."
Yuanbao subconsciously asked: "Who is that person?"
He regretted it after asking.
He had a bad feeling in his heart. He thought of what the Immortal Emperor Queen Mother had said when he just woke up. They couldn't wait to send him to the mortal world and let him stay by her side...
He turned around subconsciously: "Your Majesty should be looking for me, I'll go first..."
"Queen!"
The Immortal Lord's voice came from behind: "That person is the Empress. She was the one who killed the Supreme God Mo Shang. The Fairy Shang Yu died of depression because of this. She raised a group of monsters and ordered them to sweep across the land for her, killing countless heavenly soldiers and generals."
"You should know Gu Qingchen. He is the brother of the Supreme God."
"That woman transformed him into a monster, neither human nor ghost, and treated them as the most powerful sword in her hand. She held her own father hostage and issued an abdication edict. Do you think those officials and princes truly obeyed her? No, they simply couldn't resist."
"Yuan Ruo, she trusts you now, and only you can deal with her."
"We can't let her continue like this. Otherwise, not only will the people of the world suffer, but we in heaven will also be forever constrained by her. You may not know this, but your master is still in a coma because of activating the Three Lives Mirror."
His face was filled with hatred and misery: "Yuan Ruo, only you can save us."
Yuanbao: “…”
The man stood with his back straight, staring outside the restriction without moving.
Several immortals looked at each other, unable to figure out his attitude for a moment.
An unknown amount of time passed, and just as the atmosphere became extremely tense, the man slowly turned around. His brows were cold, his eyes clear, and he stared at them calmly: "Is this the reason you came to the mortal world this time? To let me kill my wife?"
Several immortals: "..."
Suddenly panicked, why did he react like this? He hurriedly said: "No, we..."
Yuan Bao raised his hand to interrupt them. He stared into their eyes and looked at the immortal who told him all this: "Du Chun, you still haven't told me how I died?"
Du Chun was dumbfounded.
Yuan Bao pulled the corner of his mouth, his eyes sharp, his words sharp: "You said so much, but you didn't tell me why I died, why did my wife kill the God?"
